Lime Butterfly
-----------------------------------------------------
Papilio demoleus is a common and widespread swallowtail butterfly. The butterfly is also known as the common lime butterfly, lemon butterfly, lime swallowtail, small citrus butterfly, chequered swallowtail, dingy swallowtail and citrus swallowtail. These common names refer to their host plants, which are usually citrus species such as the cultivated lime. Unlike most swallowtail butterflies, it does not have a prominent tail.
It is always exciting to shoot macro, and the onset of monsoons has made it more challenging and fun to shoot.

Hello Arjun,
A top quality image in every way, the detail is awesome. I love the intricate wing patterns and brightly colored markings. The clarity is outstanding, makes you feel as though you could actually reach out and touch it. Great work!!
